.... AGENT SYSTEMS A critical challenge to creating effective agent based systems is allowing them to operate effectively when, as is typical for many domains ranging from manufacturing to office work to military information gathering, the operating environment is complex, dynamic, and error prone [1 5]. In such domains, we can expect to utilize a highly diverse set of agents; some have fairly sophisticated coordination capabilities, but many will be simple encapsulations of legacy applications. New tasks, agents and other resources can be expected to appear and disappear in unpredictable ways. ....

....we will have to be able to operate with agents whose design incorporates only the most basic capabilities. A few efforts have done some preliminary exploration of the use of distinct exception handling services. This work has occurred predominantly in the context of business process enactment [1 3, 5, 6], manufacturing control [7 9] and planning [10, 11] The process enactment and manufacturing work, in general, has either not evolved to the point of constituting a computational model, or has been applied to a very limited range of domains (e.g. just software engineering or flexible manufacturing ....

Finally, there has been substantial work on detecting and resolving exceptions in computer supported cooperative work [41] 42] 43] [44] [45] and manufacturing control [46] 47] 48] but this has been applied to a very limited range of domains (e.g. just flexible manufacturing cell control) and exception types (e.g. just inappropriate task assignments) 6. Future Work We plan to pursue two concurrent lines of development in this ....
